Re: 13th Colony Southern Rye

That 96% appears once on their site, is that a typo? Why would a craft distiller choose a weak, enzyme infused commercial recipe anyway, that would be like an artisan baker trying to copy Wonder Bread.

The one certainty I have noted amongst craft distillers is that there is nothing certain.

Starting a distillery does not guarantee the presence of a truly knowledgeable distiller on the team it would seem.

The other distinguishing factor is the talk of using French oak instead of American oak. Without someone able to check them out in person we may not get a clear answer.

13th Colony Southern Rye Whiskey is an American classic with a distinctive spicy flavor and a slightly sweet finish. Southern Rye is derived from a mash of 96% rye grain and 4% barley grain and aged in new charred French oak barrels. Our distinctively flavored Rye Whiskey is bottled at 95 proof.
